Medicaid is working fine for me.
Ethically though health care should just be free. That would be even better. Don't ask me if this would work or not but common sense says that it should be. If we can't provide free health care to everyone as a country we are doing something wrong. |

[edited] I get so sick of people defending parents at all costs. This is one of the most disgusting articles I have ever read. |

Yeah, those emails seem incriminating to me.
The sad thing about this email scandal is it just confirms what we all already new but couldn't prove (politicians lie). It makes a person question whether the whole system of government needs to be overturned and replaced with something else. |

If you watch CNN or MSNBC Trump scandals take up a very large amount of the time. Even CNN knows that people like juicy scandals more than they like hearing about policy. I think people are just talking primarily about what is being reported on major news channels. I find it very reassuring that not... |

i was taught to ignore.
This might seem like good advice at first but it really isn't. By saying I should just "ignore" bullying my parents were teaching me to suppress justified anger which is not a good thing. It's also invalidating. |

I've been called a white knight before just for defending a female poster online which took me by surprise because it's not like I was trying to sleep with some random online poster I just genuinely thought they were being mistreated. I guess I realize now it's usually better just to let people figh... |

Oh, ignore my last comment. I realize now that the article is longer than I thought before. Actually it goes into a lot of detail.
I haven't read it all yet. |

I'm not sure I buy this analysis. I never had the impression that Bernie was ahead in the race. Does anyone here actually understand how "1 in 77 billion" was calculated? I don't see anyone flatly denying it or enthusiastically agreeing probably because the article doesn't actually explain... |

Given the influence that Trump has over his base, he needs to explicitly disavow violence, not encourage it. And this is one of those situations where that little thing called character comes into play. What I find frightening is watching Trump speak to large groups of people. Not everyone realizes ... |

He attacks others gender or ethinicity instead of what they say. This has caused him to lag behind in polls, big time. Last night during the debate, instead of telling HRC he didn't like what she said, he, instead , called her a nasty woman. This has really harmed him and keeps voters away. His big... |

I answered disagree. I didn't answer strongly disagree because it depends on the crime/crimes committed. I fail to see how treating a criminal like s**t in prison is going to make them a better person. Abusive security guards simply perpetuate the cycle of violence. When the prisoner gets out of jai... |

I think some people are giving Trump more credit than he deserves. There's one very simple reason why Trump likes Putin. It's because Putin says "nice things" about him. By Trumplogic, this makes Putin a good person, someone deserving of his respect. I think Trump is getting played and doe... |

Part of the problem is that these complex issues are difficult to understand for a layperson like myself. It's difficult to determine what is fact and what is fiction. What is corruption and what is just plain old politics. Sure I could wade through hundreds of documents on wikileaks, but first off ... |

Trump is not a corrupt businessman, he didn't break any laws. He clearly cares about more than money or else he wouldn't of made this run for president because he could make a lot more money outside of elected politics and continued close relations with those on the 'inside'. The Clinton's know Tru... |
